EC1 Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 I am going to post this again as it seems my previous post has not worked. Apologies if it has and you are reading this twice. I am having the following issues: I have plants on a page in a viewport, when I add a plant worksheet it just comes in blank and does not add up any of the plants on that page. The plants all seem to have their central cross/dot missing even though the option to show show tick size and style is on. I have tried changing the tick size to a larger one in case it is too small to be seen but this does not make any difference. In addition on some plants the central tick loci seems to have moved to one side which makes it very difficult to place plants using the place plants at poly vertices mode. Is this all something to do with the fact I am in a viewport, or is it something else? Quote Link to comment
Jonathan Pickup Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 are you plants on a design layer? Quote Link to comment
EC1 Posted March 22, 2010 Author Share Posted March 22, 2010 Hi Jonathan, No they are on a sheet layer (in viewport annotations) - is this the problem? The reason I have done it this way is I have to make a number of drawings and have just taken a viewport snapshot of the part of the baseplan I want to show plants on for that sheet. I didn't want to have one main layer outside the viewport with all the plants on it and then viewports going from that as I find the main layer ends up being very slow due to the very large number of plants on it (in this case all the plants for individual gardens of 33 residential units - a lot!). Perhaps there is a different way I could be doing this? Quote Link to comment
Jonathan Pickup Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 I would have used a layer for each garden. I know that's a lot of layers, but it would allow you to count the plants in one garden, or all the gardens combined. Quote Link to comment
Ozzie Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 I do large projects like this regularly use Classes not Layers to seperate your plants and count them Put all of your plants on one Layer so you can turn them on and off as you need to Quote Link to comment
ecomike Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 (edited) I have a question regarding Worksheets for Landmark. For some reason the Worksheet doesn't have some of the plant categories showing, but the plant is being counted. Eg. When I place an Annual or Fern in the drawing it's counted but the name of the plant doesn't show on the worksheet. When I select a Perennial, evergreen or shrub, for e.g., there's no problem...the name and quantity are visible. I'm fairly new with this program any help would be appreciated. Maybe if some has a plant list you could forward on. My email is Ecomike1@gmail.com Thanks, Edited April 19, 2010 by ecomike Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee Tamsin Slatter Posted April 29, 2010 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted April 29, 2010 Hi Mike This is because the plant data attached to the plant has nothing in the category field - or it says something that the worksheet is not setup to query. Quote Link to comment
Artscape Design Ltd Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 I can create accurate worksheets for individual layers showing separate garden beds but when I try to get a total schedule for all three layers to put on the masterplan it comes up with zero plants. Any clues why? Thanks Quote Link to comment
Pat Stanford Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 You probably have the criteria set so that it is reporting beds that are on Layer1 AND Layer2 AND Layer3 which obviously can not happen. What you want is something like: Type is Bed AND (Layer is Layer1 OR Layer is Layer2 OR Layer is Layer 3) Using the criteria builder this would end up something like: Require ALL Type is BED Require ANY Layer is Layer1 Layer is Layer2 Layer is Layer3 HTH.
